We prove that $7$-located locally $5$-large simplicial complexes are aspherical.
Graphical small cancellation extends the classical small cancellation theory and provides a powerful method for constructing groups with interesting features. In the classical setting, C(3)-T(6) small cancellation complexes are known to…
We prove the arborescence of any locally finite complex that is $CAT(0)$ with a polyhedral metric for which all vertex stars are convex. In particular locally finite $CAT(0)$ cube complexes or equilateral simplicial complexes are…
$m$-location is a local combinatorial condition for flag simplicial complexes introduced by Osajda. Osajda showed that simply connected 8-located locally 5-large complexes are hyperbolic. We treat the nonpositive curvature case of 7-located…
We exhibit 3-generator Artin groups which have finite 2-dimensional Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces, but which do not act properly discontinuously by semi-simple isometries on a 2-dimensional CAT(0) complex. We prove that infinitely many of these…
We introduce the notion of coupled link cube complex (CLCC) as a means of constructing interesting cocompactly cubulated groups. CLCCs are defined locally, making them a useful tool when precise control over the links is required. In this…
We investigate the structure of the minimal displacement set in CAT(0) cubical complexes. We show that such set is convex, it is locally endowed with a CAT(0) metric and it is simply connected.
We show that an automorphism of an arbitrary CAT(0) cube complex either has a fixed point or preserves some combinatorial axis. It follows that when a group contains a distorted cyclic subgroup, it admits no proper action on a discrete…
We provide a necessary and sufficient condition on a finite flag simplicial complex, L, for which there exists a unique CAT(0) cube complex whose vertex links are all isomorphic to L. We then find new examples of such CAT(0) cube complexes…
We provide a systematic description of the automorphism groups of specially cocompact CAT(0) cube complexes. We show that these groups are topologically finitely generated, present a method to explicitly obtain generating sets, and prove a…
In this article we study the asymptotically rigid mapping class groups of infinitely-punctured surfaces obtained by thickening planar trees. We present a family of CAT(0) cube complexes on which the latter groups act. Along the way, we…
We describe a correspondence between spaces with walls and CAT(0) cube complexes.
We prove that a random group has fixed points when it isometrically acts on a CAT(0) cube complex. We do not assume that the action is simplicial.
For each $n$ we construct examples of finitely presented $C'(1/6)$ small cancellation groups that do not act properly on any $n$-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex.
We describe locally compact groups which are separably categorical metric structures. The paper extends (and corrects) Section 3 of the paper A.Ivanov, "Locally compact groups and continuous logic", arXiv: 1206.5473
We prove the Tits Alternative for groups acting on $2$-dimensional $\mathrm{CAT}(0)$ complexes with a bound on the order of the cell stabilisers.
We construct a family of finite 2-complexes whose universal covers are CAT(0) and have polynomial divergence of desired degree. This answers a question of Gersten, namely whether such CAT(0) complexes exist.
In this paper, we give a simple criterion for a locally distributive semilattice to have CAT(0) orthoscheme complex. Namely, the orthoscheme complex of a locally distributive semilattice S is CAT(0) if and only if S is a flag semilattice,…
How complex must two finite 2-complexes be to admit a common, but not finite common, covering? We obtain an almost answer: the minimum possible number of triangles in a pseudo-simplicial triangulation of each complex is 3, 4, or 5.
We provide geometric conditions on a pair of hyperplanes of a CAT(0) cube complex that imply divergence bounds for the cube complex. As an application, we classify all right-angled Coxeter groups with quadratic divergence and show…
